Two Decades of Merry Making Hoopla and Uh-Oh Santa’s Going Broke
We're kicking off the holidays with a milestone – the 20th anniversary of our most popular show of the year! On November 17th, we will open the doors for Holiday Hoopla 20, presented by PNC Bank, at our new home in the Shadowbox Live Building at 503 S. Front Street!
After twenty years, Holiday Hoopla has become a central Ohio tradition. But this year, Shadowbox Live isn’t simply presenting another sketch comedy and rock ‘n’ roll performance. Holiday Hoopla 20 has been reformatted to give audiences a fresh, fun, and brand new holiday experience, while still including many fan favorites Shadowbox Live patrons count on seeing.

Twenty years of Holiday Hoopla means it’s also the twentieth anniversary of the most beloved trio in Shadowbox Live history, The Santa Babies! And, this year, audiences can look forward to seeing the original Santa Babies reunited after over a decade apart! With metaperformer Stacie Boord’s return to Columbus, Dixie, Dorothy, and Dolly are back in action and ready to deliver some flirty Santa Baby style holiday fun.
